Chapter Ninety-Eight: Tearing the Skin

The excitement caused by Su Qi'an in Lingdong County a few days ago came to an end after Su Qi'an was escorted to the county government and did not appear.

What happened to Su Qi'an and the three of them, passers-by already knew, and many people sighed.

But think about it, dare to go against the Song family in Lingdong County, and look for death.

It didn't take long for the excitement caused by Su Qi'an and the three of them to drown in a peaceful life.

But on the third day, a piece of news instantly broke the calm of Lingdong County.

The Lingdong County Government issued an announcement that the county lieutenant would lead the team to start purging bandits in the county from today, and that they would not withdraw troops if they were unjust and banditry.

This news made the people in the city stunned, not because they were surprised that the county government suppressed the bandits, but because of the second half of the announcement, the injustice and bandits will never be withdrawn.

"Damn, I'm not mistaken, what's wrong with the county magistrate? Is this real? ”

"Shhh, don't talk nonsense, be careful of being heard by the officials and arrest you, this matter has nothing to do with us, be a melon eater."

"Well, you're right, but if you do it seriously, that family will be miserable."

“……”

Many voices of discussion sounded in front of the announcement at the entrance of the county government, and some people who knew the inside story of the bandit problem in Lingdong County were very surprised.

After all, there are some families behind the bandits in Lingdong County.

usually suppresses bandits, but in fact, it's just for show, and with such an announcement today, could it be that the relationship between the county order and that family has broken up?

Although there are many doubts in their hearts, it is obvious that those in the know do not believe that their Zhou County Order is serious, and most of them are acting to appease people's hearts.

Seeing a large number of officials out of the city, as time passed, two days passed.

But this time, everyone did not wait for the county lieutenant to collect the troops, but the news that the bandits in Wild Wolf Mountain were destroyed.

As soon as this news came out, all the people in the city were stunned.

The bandits of Wild Wolf Mountain are the strongest group of bandits in Lingdong County.

Although it is not like Dongzishan, it will attack the county government, but it is definitely not an ordinary person who takes the initiative to provoke.

Even if it is the Lingdong County Ya, it is quite difficult to move it, and more importantly, there is the support of local wealthy families behind this gang of bandits.

In normal times, the relationship with the county government is regarded as well water and river water, but who would have thought that the first target of the government service that sent troops to suppress bandits was Wild Wolf Mountain.

And in two days, I won it directly, and this shock is beyond words.

"It seems that Lord Zhou is really moving, and he has suppressed Wild Wolf Mountain, and this Lingdong County is about to change the sky."

Many people sighed in their hearts, but more of them were full of worry.

The bandits in Wild Wolf Mountain were exterminated, and the people were naturally happy, but this meant that they had torn their faces with the Song family, and this Lingdong County was going to be in chaos.

The people are actually not optimistic, the Zhou County Order can make the Song family bow their heads, and usually, the county government will lower the Song family, let alone now.

I don't understand why their parents, the official, would choose to tear their faces at this time, and the people didn't want to think about it, so they all turned around and went home, ready to close the door and not go out.

They are all small people, no one can afford to offend, hide at home, at least not from the impact.

The work of suppressing the bandits continued, and it took three days after the bandits in Wild Wolf Mountain were exterminated.

The officials led by the county lieutenant were like bamboos along the way, and they destroyed three mountains in a row.

For a while, the remaining bandits were all in danger, and at this time, it was the Song family who was even more anxious.

At this time, in the Song family's mansion.

A scar-faced man with bandages in his hands and crutches on his face, full of sorrow, asked for help from the young man in the gorgeous robe in front of him.

"Song Shao, save us, if you don't come forward, our brothers will be completely wiped out."

Song Wen's face was gloomy, he looked at the seriously injured man in front of him, and said coldly.

"Tell me what's going on! Wild Wolf Mountain has been exterminated, and the county lieutenant has not collected his troops yet? ”

"Originally, we thought the same way, after all, the Wild Wolf Mountain is big, and it is normal to be surrounded and suppressed, who would have thought that after the Wild Wolf Mountain was exterminated, these servants were like crazy, encircled and suppressed one by one, looking at their appearance, they should not stop until they achieve their goal."

"And these people are definitely not all officials, we have dealt with them, and it is absolutely impossible for the officials of Lingdong County to be so fierce."

"Well-trained and tacitly coordinated, black powder was also used in this encirclement and suppression."

"Damn! This surnamed Zhou really kicked his nose in the face, he knew this, and he would not retreat if he said anything. ”

Song Wen was very annoyed, the county lieutenant led the officials to attack Wild Wolf Mountain, as the gold lord behind the scenes, how could Song Wen not know.

Wild Wolf Mountain has really gone too far in the past few years, and originally wanted to sell his favor to Zhou Qi.

Therefore, before attacking the mountain, most of the bandits in Wild Wolf Mountain withdrew, who knows, this Zhou Qi is so faceless.

After exterminating Wild Wolf Mountain, instead of withdrawing troops, they fought more and more fiercely.

Some mountain bandits have suffered heavy losses, and if they continue to suppress them, they are likely to be completely quelled.

The bandits in Lingdong County, but a good knife in the hands of the Song family, whether it is public or private, it is impossible to watch it be exterminated.

"It seems that today's county government is going to go in person."

The injured man, listening to Song Wen say this, his heart was relieved, as long as Song Wen came forward, this matter would be settled sooner or later.

This is the ability of the Song family.

Song Wen retracted his gaze, suddenly seemed to think of something, and asked, "By the way, that Qin Wu, how is it?" ”

When Song Wen asked him this, the injured man's face changed suddenly, and his voice stammered a little.

"Song Shao, Qin... Qin Wuhe, when attacking the mountain, was rescued by the officials. ”

"Huh? Rescued? Song Wen sighed lightly, with obvious dissatisfaction in his voice.

The injured man immediately kowtowed and knelt down, explaining, "Song Shao, don't blame us for this, this Qin Wu himself has some strength, at that time, the government was attacking the mountain very fiercely, we couldn't take care of it at all, and we couldn't take him with us when we retreated, so..."

"What a bunch of rubbish!"

Song Wen scolded angrily, and the injured man didn't dare to refute, kneeling on the ground and kowtowing and begging for mercy.

Song Wen took a deep breath, eased his expression, and said coldly, "Okay, this person will be rescued when he is rescued, Qin Huai has disappeared, and the Qin family's industry has also been greatly hit, and this person is useless now." ”

"Remember, this is only once, and if there is a next time, you know the consequences."

After speaking, Song Wen directly crossed the big man beside him and left directly.

At the door of Song's house, a carriage was prepared in time, Song Wen got into the car, and behind him, there were two teams of guards, which looked quite imposing.

The carriage moved, driving on the main road, and the pedestrians who ran away beside them avoided one after another, for fear that they would offend the owner of the carriage because they could not dodge.

The road was unimpeded, and about a quarter of an hour, the carriage stopped at the gate of the county office.

Without waiting for Song Wen to get out of the car, the subordinate next to him said loudly, "My family has a young master here, and I won't report it yet!" ”

That appearance can be described as extremely arrogant, and it is the only one in Lingdong County that can be arrogant in front of the government.

The official guarding the door, trotting all the way, quickly reported.

Song Wen, who was sitting in the carriage, looked at this scene and sneered.

"Now you know you're scared? If you didn't save face at the beginning, don't think about it today. ”

After a while, the gate of the county yamen opened, the master of the yamen came out to lead the way, and Song Wen got out of the carriage.

As soon as the guard behind him wanted to follow, he was stopped by his master, "My family has an order, I only saw Song Juren alone, and the others are forbidden to enter." ”

As soon as these words came out, the person who called the door was very unhappy, and he just wanted to shout and reprimand, but was stopped by Song Wen.

"Hehe, I came here today, I was to see Lord Zhou alone, it's really inappropriate for you to come along, you just wait here, so as not to let outsiders think that I, Song Wen, want to do something to the county government."

What Song Wen said seemed to be understanding, but in fact, it was with a kind of superiority.

The master of the yamen and the guards didn't say anything, and seemed to agree with what Song Wen said.

After Song Wen finished speaking, under the leadership of the master, Song Wen entered the county office.

In the county office, in front, Zhou Qi was sitting in danger, Song Wengang stepped inside, and the playful voice sounded.

"Hehe, I haven't seen you for a long time, Lord Zhou's official authority is really great, I don't know who gave your lord this kind of confidence."

"Smack!"

As soon as Song Wen's voice fell, the startled voice fell heavily, and Zhou Qi's face was full of seriousness, and he shouted loudly.

"Bold! Song Wen don't think that you are a meritorious person, you can act recklessly here, this official is an official of the imperial court, dare to talk to this official like this, come here, give me twenty boards! ”

Zhou Qi's sudden rebuke made Song Wen's face full of shock, and when he came back to his senses, his body was controlled by the officials on both sides.

If you do it, you have to fight.

Song Wen said loudly, "Zhou Qi, you dare!" What are you crazy about, dare to make a move on Ben Shao, believe it or not, Ben Shao made you lose this official position. ”

"Bold, as a lifter, he doesn't think about sharing the worries of the court, relieving the suffering of the people, and doing prestige in Lingdong County, but also calling the name of the official, adding crime to crime, and adding twenty boards."

"Zhou Qi! Don't you dare! Song Wen was furious.

But what was waiting for him was a succession of big boards, and Song Wen's shouts soon turned into bursts of wails.

A wealthy boy like Song Wen, where can his body withstand this kind of suffering, and he only received eighteen strokes from the board, and then fainted.

Zhou Qi didn't mean to be used to it, and his subordinate servants directly splashed a bucket of water and woke him up.

Zhou Qi was lying on the ground, his hair was wet, he was weak, and he was quite embarrassed.

But his eyes were full of anger, if his eyes could kill, Zhou Qi would have been cut by Song Wen at this moment.

No matter how fierce the anger in Song Wen's heart was, he also knew that he was under control of others at the moment and had to bow his head.

Song Wen gasped, looked at Zhou Qi on the stage with cold eyes, and said coldly.

"Lord Zhou, are you sure you don't regret what you did today? It's to tear your face with my Song family, right? ”

"Song Wen, don't you know what your Song family has done in Lingdong County over the years? If it weren't for the official, taking into account your fame and status, with your insults just now, you wouldn't be able to leave the gate of the county government today. ”

Looking at Zhou Qi's seriousness, Song Wen couldn't help laughing.

"Hahaha, what Lord Zhou said is good, so that Lord Zhou is like this, there must be someone behind him to support him."

"Very good, I hope the adults can remember today, no matter who supports the adults behind them, but in Lingdong County, if he offends the Song family, he will not end well."
